REASONS TO HATE KEN<br />
1. you've only been in the palestine activism game a few years and now your are one of the most famous faces for it. ive spent thirty years struggling for the same cause and i don't get half the attention you get....i feel so cheated it should be me. i wish i went on the marvi marmara. hate you ken you stole the lime light from me.<br />
2. Ken i loved you so much and you rejected my love for you. after all i have done for you all the hours and late nights writing about you online and you rejected me I HATE YOU now i will make your life hell and spend the rest of my life destroying you.<br />
3. he hates Zionists so they hate him<br />
<br />
SOLUTION<br />
if you don't trust him with the money then let some one else who is trusted handle it and leave him to continue with the project WHICH HE FOUNDED problem solved project continues<br />
<br />
MY OPINION<br />
<i>how can we take some body seriously when they speak over an hour on a radio show about the wound on his head was faked (INSANE) and he didnt dissarm israeli souldiers even if he faked the blood on his head. if he did i must commend him for using his inciative to take advantage of a situation which is rare! israelis murder children and resort to the most devious tactics ever seen on this earth so double points ken if you faked it.</i><br />
<i><span class="photo_right"><img alt="" class="photo_img img" src="http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/262397_10150331936572534_510242533_9907785_4718084_a.jpg" /><span class="caption">self smearing ketchup</span></span></i><br />
<i>We know ken has a confrontational approach to things as we witnessed on road to hope some didnt like it but he made his intentions very loud and clear so if people on the samouni convoy didnt like his style why didnt you simply wait for another convoy or do your own passive convoy dont hijack the mans efforts? thats his way it takes different approaches some times. let it be!</i><br />
<i> <span class="photo_right"><img alt="" class="photo_img img" src="http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/228974_10150331937352534_510242533_9907791_5594570_a.jpg" /><span class="caption">All talk</span></span> </i><br />
<br />
<i>You could be destroying one of the best voices we have for the cause. Every one should rethink their position and ask themselves what evidence they have seen for themsleves to make a judgement on this man. as i said ken has become puplar and rejected a few bored menapausal womens love who have too much time on their hands trying to destroy him with all these chinese whispers all over facebook. my message to them is GET A JOB</i><br />

QUESTIONs with all due respect<br />

<li> Dr saeb Why did you only hours before praise ken okeefe by saying what a great man he is and then overnight become against him?</li>
<li>Noor you have worked with Ken for months you cant just stand on the sideline its our right to know your view on his conduct experiance with him?</li>
<li>Ken whats the situation with the samouni visas?</li>
</ol><i><b>Behold, you received it on your tongues, and said out of your mouths things which you had no knowledge; and you thought it to be a light matter, while it was most serious in the sight of God (24: 15)</b></i><br />

</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">Thus far I have been extremely reserved about the events of this hijacking, with regard to the instigators of this hostile takeover I have only stated one primary fact. That is that the vehicles bought with funds acquired for Trade Not Aid were fraudulently registered in the name of Catherine Myles. This fact alone should be sufficient to tell people what this hijacking is all about.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">But despite my limiting the information to the facts, the takeover crew are now continuously engaged in a slander campaign ala Jo Ann Westcott. Catherine Myles and Saeb Shaath, are now working as one, and what is being said is disgusting and dangerous. Among the claims these two are responsible for, and this is not a comprehensive list;</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">1) I have stolen money from my campaign.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">2) That I am mentally ill.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">3) That I see “Islam is a joke”.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">4) That I have “nearly” been arrested twice in Gaza by Hamas because I attempted to lure young woman to my apartment.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">5) That I am unwelcome in Gaza.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">I have spoken to Noor Harazzen, the Palestinian Director for the Samouni Project in Gaza, she has verified that she and any other woman I had contact with is now in danger in Gaza. These lies are actively being spread both online and with the people of Gaza directly, including the Samouni family. The maliciousness of spreading these lies with the children of the Samouni family, children I helped build a playground for, children I am developing a classroom and education program for, is tantamount to emotional torture. These children love me and I love them, and the spreading of lies about me to them is unforgivable. It reeks of Zionist tactics and shames everyone involved.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span class=""><img alt="" class="photo_img img" height="266" src="http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/224497_2038319031494_1049800788_31961457_1688227_n.jpg" width="400" /><span class="caption">With the Samouni kids.</span></span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">For those who do not know, the accusation that a young, un-married woman would be involved in an intimate relationship with a married, Western man is explosively dangerous. Noor is a courageous young woman and I am honoured to have her as a sister and a colleague, but I am angry that such a dedicated young sister would be put in serious danger, used as a pawn by people stealing a mission intended to help Palestine. All of this is nothing more than a blatant power grab, and Noor, along with other Palestinian sisters are apparently meaningless.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">Saeb Shaath knows the danger I am speaking about here and thus I cannot be silent about the disgraceful role Mr. Shaath is playing in this madness. Mr. Shaath was in my home in the last week, he held my baby boy and claimed to bless him; he said repeatedly, minutes before the “committee” meeting used to hijack my mission, “I am behind you 100% brother”.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">At this point Catherine Myles is no better than Jo Ann Westcott, both are first class slanderers who would be facing slander and liable charges in court if only I had the money. Saeb Shaath is now part of this threesome, claiming to lead the mission I founded, Saeb Shaath is by his participation and silence party to a fraud, and now he is complicit in a slander and recklessly endangerment that puts young woman in Gaza in grave danger.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">If anything happens to any of the woman I knew in Gaza then Catherine Myles, Jo Ann Westcott and Saeb Shaath should all be held responsible. I call on Saeb Shaath to preserve some semblance of dignity, walk away from this disgraceful hijacking and condemn both Jo Ann Westcott and Catherine Myles for their dangerous and disgusting slander.</div></div>Palinoiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12644925444416630179noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5281715067216564960.post-42713362106089096532011-07-30T02:32:00.001-07:002011-07-30T02:33:56.076-07:00PUBLIC NOTICE - The Hijacking of the Trade Not Aid Mission<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="color: #cccccc;">By: Ken O'Keefe</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">As the founder and Managing Director for the Samouni Project and Aloha Palestine CIC, the social enterprises that form the partnership of the Trade Not Aid Mission (TNA Mission) to Gaza, I must declare that a hostile takeover of the TNA Mission is currently underway. The primary instigators of this takeover are Catherine (Cate) Myles and Saeb Shaath. The latter going from no formal position or significant contribution, financially or otherwise to this mission, to being the leader of a “committee” that effectively renders my position as leader redundant. For the record, this committee is the primary vehicle for a blatant power grab.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span class=""><img alt="" class="photo_img img" height="266" src="http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/262502_2035800408530_1049800788_31958451_548041_n.jpg" width="400" /><span class="caption"></span></span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">I cannot deny that this takeover attempt is a direct result of my atrocious character judgment, specifically my entrusting one Catherine Myles as my “personal assistant” and accountant. Believing in her sincerity, TNA Mission funds were channeled to Ms. Myles with direction from myself to carry out certain tasks. Among those tasks was the purchase and registration of TNA Mission vehicles, these include a full sized coach and a mobile office mini-bus, both specifically designated for the Samouni Project, along with an 18-ton truck to be used as the primary trading vehicle for Aloha Palestine. In my failure to verify registration details however, these vehicles were fraudulently registered in the name of Catherine Myles, rendering them her personal property. The level of deception and pre-meditation for this takeover is ever clear to me now, and it relied upon the fraudulent registration of these vehicles in the name of Catherine Myles.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">Knowing she was the legal owner of the vehicles, Police were called by Ms. Myles in order to protect her property as the vehicles and cargo secured for the Trade Not Aid Mission were taken against my will to a destination unknown. To be 100% clear, these vehicles have been literally hijacked from the mission and are now controlled by people who conspired to subvert myself from within the mission.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">I apologize to every supporter of this mission, to the people of Palestine and everyone distracted from more important matters. But I also call on you to effect justice and the end of this takeover once and for all.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">Regardless of these developments I shall remain a diligent, loyal worker for Palestinian justice, as well as an honorary member of the Samouni family. I continue to have the families full support as the leader of this mission. Samouni family members will be joining this mission and so I urge those involved in this fraud to distance yourself from it and condemn this takeover in the interest of the vehicles and cargo being returned without delay.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />

All afternoon until 6pm there will be a stall promoting the cause in St Enoch Square as part of the Trade Not Aid UK Tour, being conducted to connect the people of England, Scotland & Wales to the people of Palestine in a physical, tangible way. In the evening there is also a public meeting at 7:30 in the STUC 333 Woo</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; line-height: 15px;"><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">dlands Road with speakers including Mavi Marmara survor and Tradde not Aid Palestine founder Ken O'Keefe, Bilal Anwar of Friends of Al Aqsa and others to be confirmed.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
We will be collecting items intended to help get the people of Gaza on their own two feet, specifically we are picking up good quality sewing machines, Bee hives, textiles such as cotton rolls, solar panels, a T-shirt printing machine and any such items that are valuable and can be used to produce marketable goods in Gaza. If you have any such items then we are ready to transport your machinery, equipment or raw materials so that the people of Gaza can produce their own income.<br />
<br />
Unlike any convoy before it, our mission does not end upon arrival in Gaza, in truth our mission will not end until import and export trade is happening with such regularity and reliability that aid will no longer be necessary for the people of Gaza. The truth is that the people there do not want to live on aid; they have been forced to do so for over 5 years now. We intend to end Gaza's charitable dependency status, and that is why we will not only offload our goods in Gaza, but then reload our trucks to the brim, and export those goods to the people of Europe and beyond. If anyone tries to stop us then you will hear about it and we will do everything to correct this ongoing injustice.<br />
<br />
As part of the Trade Not Aid Mission we are also developing the Samouni Project by delivering everything needed to begin first class education for over 100 children of the Samouni family. If you do not know the Samouni family story then see what Ken has to say about them <a href="http://kenokeefe.wordpress.com/2011/05/09/samouni-in%E2%80%8Bter-trade-palestine-trade-%E2%80%8Bnot-aid/">here</a>.<br />
<br />
We are bringing these kids computers, books, paper and pens, a telescope, microscope, screen projector, arts and crafts, and much more. And we already have a loving and highly qualified teaching staff ready to provide full time, quality education. All we need to do is deliver the educational items and secure the modest salaries for the teaching staff. Come and meet us on our tour and we will provide a way for you to support the running of this educational program.<br />
<br />
To support this mission in general and get us on the road to Gaza that much sooner, please donate the requested items or funds so we can get the Samouni classroom up and running, as well as the people of Gaza living with dignity not charity, sooner, as opposed to later. The time for justice is now, we can make it so.<br />
<br />

I will speak at the festival and at select cities on the tour. Topics will include what I saw on my recent 6 month visit to Gaza, the murder of Vittorio Arrigoni, and of course the details of the Trade Not Aid Mission. I will also discuss the status of the Samouni Project and the classroom and educational program we will complete upon our arrival in Gaza. I will also address the well-orchestrated Zionist attack attempting to defame me. </span></div><div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">This is one of those very unplanned articles born out of inspiration in Egypt.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">I arrived in Egypt after being blocked by the Egyptian security services four separate times over the course of nearly three months. During this period, with an easy opportunity for attention and exposure, I kept my mouth almost completely shut. In the meantime I have quietly done what I could to depart Gaza and return to my family and to join my wife for the birth of our second child. Instead I was repeatedly blocked, missed the birth of our child and have been unable to give emotional, physical and even financial support to my family. All the while it has never been lost on me that this is only a small fraction of the injustice thrust upon Palestinians every single day.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">The blessing in this is that the Samouni Project and other very promising work has transpired, due directly to me ending up in Gaza longer than planned. I am always keen to turn negatives into positives, and that is exactly what I have done.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">In this extra time in Gaza, being separated from my wife and family I have become that much more aware of how ultimately blessed I am as a man. What my wife endures, all too often without any tangible support from me, is a man who is gone much of the time, who works every single day when he is absent or around, a man who earns almost no money and who by the nature of his work brings danger not just to himself, but possibly to her and our family. When you add all this up, I have a gem of a woman, the best kind of woman (in my mind anyway), a Palestinian woman, a shining example of womanhood.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">It is said that behind every great man you will find a great woman. I do not look at myself as a great man per se, but I do see the greatness of the women in my life, and if I do indeed succeed in my ultimate goals, you can thank these women every bit as much as me. They have played the essential role in my character development, they are Goddesses, the fabric of a healthy society and responsible for the most important job that exists, that of being a mother.<br />

<span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_467" style="color: #cccccc; width: 460px;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://kenokeefe.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/ken-mom-customer.jpg"><img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-467" height="303" src="http://kenokeefe.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/ken-mom-customer.jpg?w=450&h=303" title="Ken-Mom-Customer" width="450" /></a></span><div class="wp-caption-text"><span style="font-size: small;">My mother, my first great blessing in life.</span></div></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
My mother, my grandmother, and my wife are such women; all of them have shown me a love that is boundless and unconditional. Because of them, more than any other factors in my life, I hold great love for my fellow human beings and all life in general. When you combine true love with the understanding of a women’s intimate relationship and experience with injustice, you will be empowered. The strength that myself and countless others exhibit in the face of the sadistic tyrants and their minions in this world, is derived in great part by the beauty and essence of the women in our lives. I feel sorry for the lowly men trapped in the simplistic attraction of the sexual essence of a woman, there is so much more, so, so much more, and to know women as I do is to know the whole beauty of them.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">I had no plans to write about women when I arrived in Cairo, but something happened and a link in my mind was made between the Egyptian Revolution and the cause of women in general. And I am always keen to link causes, always. I have met many people since arriving in Cairo and what has been communicated to me is that the revolution continues as a non-stop endeavor. I have been told the demands of the revolution are beginning to center around financial justice, workers rights and an egalitarian tax system that would result in a redistribution of wealth. The achievement of these demands would inevitably lift countless millions of Egyptians out of the deep poverty that Western cultural imperialism and Egyptian corruption have relegated them to.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">As fate would have it I watched a movie in Cairo that developed a link worthy of sharing. I seriously recommend this movie to everyone, but especially to women. And though it may seem the message of the movie centers around equal pay for women, I have to disagree. I believe the central theme is justice, and as Martin Luther King Jr. famously said, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">The movie is called ‘Made in Dagenham’, watch it, breathe it in and realize that the struggle for equal pay in Britain, the struggle for redistribution of wealth in Egypt, and every struggle you can think of has just one thing obstructing justice, and that would be unity. In the movie men and women of the workers unions united, despite the best efforts of the sell-outs, and in the end men and women united and gained. That is the secret waiting to be figured out by us, we all have the same cause, when we unite, we can achieve anything.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">I supported the Egyptian Revolution from the moment I heard of it, which was before it officially began, and that explains the reason I have been blocked by the security services up till now. But I want Egypt to know, and the workers of England to know, as well as the Palestinians, the American’s, the students, the oppressed everywhere, to know, that you all have the same struggle, against the same centralized enemy. Think critically, open your heart, shed the fear, and you will know this to be true.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">If you see the world the way I do, and I know I am not alone in this, you will see the methods of divide and rule are everywhere. The powers that be know all too well that we, the masses, the working class, the immigrants, the women, the blacks, the Hawaiians (kanaka maoli), the Palestinians and the occupied, oppressed and violated from all around the world are all fighting the same system. God help the tyrants should we ever figure this out, because the moment we do, we will begin to experience the sweet taste of justice and the liberation of a dignified life.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">And so I go back to the women, the massive numbers of women who have been raped and beaten and exploited and violated, and yet they do what women do, they are moms. They look after us, love us, nurture us and support us, they shelter us from a cruel world. God help the child whose mother does not fulfill this role, I reckon you can explain to one degree or another the level of insanity in our collectively insane world, by the success or failure of the mothers in every child’s life.<br />
</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_468" style="color: #cccccc; width: 460px;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://kenokeefe.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/mg_5381.jpg"><img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-468" height="299" src="http://kenokeefe.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/mg_5381.jpg?w=450&h=299" title="_MG_5381" width="450" /></a></span><div class="wp-caption-text"><span style="font-size: small;">Zeinat Samouni, a great, great mother.<br />
</span></div></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">I was blessed in this regard, my children are equally blessed, and now I finally see my failure as a man, my failure to be the father and husband, something that every woman and child deserves. As I return home to my family, after 8 months of absence, during almost the entire pregnancy of our second child, I vow to give the time and support my family deserves. I will finally find the balance of time for my family and time for the cause. I will not sacrifice my family for the cause any longer, I cannot, simply because I cannot respect myself as a man, when I chose my woman, impregnated her , while not honouring the commitment and responsibility that this inherently involves.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">You will see less of me on Facebook and Twitter, but you will get more from me in the end. Leadership by example is a principle I believe in to the hilt, and to be a good father and husband is essential for me if I am to be considered a leader.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">For those of pure heart and genuine support, know this, as I achieve greater success in my stated goals, I am all too predictably to be increasingly attacked by the idiots and agents. It seems the central charge, although there are so many, is that I do what I do for money and fame. Make no mistake; the timing of these attacks is not accidental. This latest round of attacks began just days after the birth of our second son, while I was involuntarily thousands of miles away from my wife. This attack included an extra charge that I was committing adultery, again within days of my wife giving birth… alone. Whether Zionists initiated this attack or not, they would be the first to cheer it on.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">What can one say who is the target of such libel? Not many are willing to subject themselves to this type of poison, but putting yourself out there on the chopping block is inevitable should you walk the path that I do. Again it comes down to the love given to me by the women in my life. Does a mother abandon her child because her own life or character is at risk? Of course not, and so it is I will not abandon my brothers and sisters in Palestine, Hawaii, Iraq, Afghanistan, and indeed America and every corner of the Earth were people endure injustice. We are all family, flawed as we may be, and I am a brother, and I will act as such.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Through the women in my life I have been given love that has afforded me the self-respect so many others can only yearn to know. Rest assured, I will not abandon my mission for a better world, no matter how vicious the attacks on me. I prefer to die, as a mother does to protect her vulnerable child, then live and turn my back on my brothers and sisters who constitute my human family. And the women in my life are every bit as strong as myself, and they too will not be swayed by attacks on me or even themselves.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">As for the slander directed at me, slander flying in the face of the facts, those of you who subscribe to this garbage make yourselves out to be dupes and fools. You are indeed a significant part of the problem. Do not get me wrong, nobody should be followed blindly, myself included. Never should a person abandon critical thinking. But to ignore the obvious commitment a person like myself has shown, by words spoken and deeds carried out, to buy into the slander leveled at me simply because supposed “allies” say it is so, is a disgrace. In doing this you feed tyranny and division, you attack a brother who has put his life on the line numerous times. It really is a disgrace, especially since most if not all of you have never risked what I or my family have.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">The dupes fail to see that anyone who stands as I do against injustice, especially if they are getting results and inspiring others to act, will be attacked. They fail to understand the method of divide and rule through slander and liable. Wake up, smell the coffee, stop being dupes and join the struggle or identify yourselves as the agents of the enemy you are, unwittingly or not.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">As the character Forest Gump says in the movie of the same title, “Stupid is as stupid does.”</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">As yet another means of educating the idiots I shall take an extraordinary step. My wife and family and all of my closest friends already know this truth, but some of you are suckered into doubting it. My path has meant an enormous amount of unpaid work; spiritually rewarding I must say, but the vast majority of it unpaid. And yes many people have helped my along the way, so that I could do what I do. The result however, in travelling this dubious, perilous path, for my wife and kids, is a sacrifice in which they are deprived of the resources required for financial security. I could make money a priority, but I have not. Nonetheless, I am not willing to subject them to this insecurity any longer; accused or not of doing what I do for money, I will secure a modest paycheck earned out of an honourable and altruistic job. My benefits will derive from the benefits of others. If you see me sporting flashy cars and living in a mansion, then you will have every right to sling mud my way, but bank on this, that will never happen. Riches for me are measured in terms of what you give, not what you take. And in this sense, I am one of the richest men on the planet, I will continue to give everything I have, except my self-respect.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">And as I venture to earn this pay, to honour my duty as a father and a husband, I will submit my bank statements for the world to see. Thus you will all be able to see that while I have risked life and limb, as do so many others, I have done so with little to no reward in financial terms; and yet some very stupid or very evil people, have been spreading the lie, that I do what I do for money. I do not say this to defend myself, really I don’t, I say this to help others understand, because enough of us must understand in order to create a better world.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">But I am telling all the idiots right now; I will not take on the full time job of responding to every spurious claim made about me. After I show my bank statements, the next charge will be that I have taken cash payments which were never deposited. How will I prove this false? The answer is there is no way to disprove this, and that is why such charges will inevitably come. The idiots will buy it, I do accept this, but the thinking people, those not clouded by jealousy, insecurity, cynicism and outright stupidity, you are the ones I am talking to now. You are the ones that matter, idiots do as idiots do, it is irrelevant as long as thinking, conscientious people do what they can do. And that really is the question, will enough of us do what we are capable of doing?</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">I have made it a goal of mine to help the stupid people who bite hook, line and sinker into the slander written and said about me, and I will help you. I will help you see the character assassination trash for what it is, and how it makes the Zionists and the tyrants smile. But I will not dedicate limitless time to this endeavor. I will do it because I know many of the idiots, like myself when I was a US Marine, are not bad people. You are just stupid, and easily manipulated, a crime worth forgiving. Like myself 20 years ago you deserve some love and effort, how could I not extend to you what was given to me when I was once you?</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">But the rest of you, the insidiously false “allies”, you I am happy to expose. You are often the neo-liberal wanker “activists”, you make us Western people of good heart look like the enemy. You are even worse then the direct enemies, at least they are much more honest about where they stand. You on the other hand are the people who destroy the capacity of good people in the West to express genuine brotherhood and sisterhood with our non-Western family. The damage you do is incalculable, and exposing you is a task of significant importance.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">And so I return to the women, the women in my life are the core of my strength. Ultimate love and respect to all the sane and beautiful women out there. In me you have a brother or a son, look at me as you would your blood brother or your beloved son, and I in turn I shall give what you deserve of me. You, the true woman, you are our greatest hope; you are at the center of a just and peaceful future, I am born of you, and I will die of you.</span></div><span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"> </span><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">TJP </span></div></div>Palinoiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12644925444416630179noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5281715067216564960.post-66582949336776517692011-05-29T23:19:00.000-07:002011-05-29T23:26:21.506-07:00Departing Gaza<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br />

</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/208031_1779374718048_1049800788_31672140_5564696_n.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" class="alignleft" height="175" src="http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/208031_1779374718048_1049800788_31672140_5564696_n.jpg" title="Ken O'Keefe" width="200" /></a> <a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="color: #cccccc;">I have been intending to write something to the haters of </span><a href="http://kenokeefe.blogspot.com/" style="color: #cccccc;" target="_blank">Ken O’Keefe</a></span> for a while now but haven’t got the time and chance. My fury and rage today, however, are forcing me to get on with it! Let me first point out that my respect for Ken O’Keefe and everything that he has been doing throughout his life stems for my absolute respect for justice and all those who dedicate their lives, time, and efforts to just causes; those who seek truth, justice, and peace.<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">Before I get on with my post and why I decided to write it, I just want to leave a quick reply to </span><strong style="color: #cccccc;">‘</strong><strong style="color: #cccccc;">USA Green Hours’ </strong><span style="color: #cccccc;">who commented on my page: </span><a href="http://palinoia.wordpress.com/aid-why-not-trade/" style="color: #cccccc;" target="_blank">Aid? Why Not Trade?</a><span style="color: #cccccc;"> (where you can see my interview with Ken about the necessity of trade and about ‘Aloha Palestine’) Saying:</span><span style="color: olive;"><strong> “</strong>The Gazans don’t need anybody to teach them how to trade. They have been doing it for thousands of years just in case you didn’t know.’</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Well… First off, who said anyone was trying to teach Gazans how to trade? I hope that next time when someone wants to say something, they’d actually know what it is and how to phrase it correctly. Ken NEVER once said or even implied or intended that he wants to teach anyone how to trade! And I challenge anyone to bring me evidence- one video would be cool- in which he makes such a point. Ken emphasizes and repeats time and again that he is but a facilitator, just like any other activist! The siege imposed on Gaza hindered, and blocked even, trade. Internationals and activists usually focus on bringing aid to the population of Gaza, which does not really solve anything! It’s a temporal solution, which we all appreciate and full-well recognize the massive efforts undergone to execute it (note that Ken was involved in that as well). However, bringing aid is like giving someone a fish rather than a fishing rod! Not that they will teach you how to fish, but when you are under siege and unable to provide those fishing rods, it is nice to see activists bringing the rods rather than the fish. And this is precisely what Ken has realized and has been working shoulder to shoulder with Palestinians, including samouni family members which I’ll be talking about later in my post; to actually facilitate trade and break the siege in this one form at least. One this note, you can check <a href="http://kenokeefe.blogspot.com/2011/05/samouni-family-project-from-to-z.html" target="_blank">the Samouni project</a><a href="http://kenokeefe.blogspot.com/2011/05/samouni-bee-project.html" target="_blank">the beehives project</a>, and <a href="http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1829327766843.2096200.1049800788" target="_blank">exportation</a>. Ken will only be bringing the beehives with the convoy, not bringing honey OR teaching Gazans how to use beehives and make a living out of it, because they’ve always done so but were prevented from doing so due to Israeli terrorism <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif?m=1300122929g" /> </span> including </div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"> </div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">This ‘USA Green Hours’ continues: </span><span style="color: olive;">‘Regarding this statement “We need to establish trade; once we establish trade, we can get raw materials in, the factories can be rebuilt, people can go back to work, the economy can be developed, Palestinians will have no need for aid! None.” I didn’t realize that the Gazans’ inability to trade was their main problem? Do you remember the occupation and the apartheid state that constantly bombs them? So, you bring raw material in and you build and the zionists come and bomb it, and what’s next? Bring more raw material and rebuild again and again and watch everything get bombed over and over again? Please tell Mr. O’Keefe that his battle is in the US against the zionists who control the US government, fund and blindly support those who occupy Palestine and constantly bomb Gaza. Oops! I forgot, there will be no money making in that.’</span></span><br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">If you think Gazans’ inability to trade due to the siege isn’t their main problem, then am assuming going to the buffer zones in peaceful protests with ISM activists isn’t either! And I am assuming that going deep into the sea to help fishermen as Vik did isn’t the main problem either! Let’s just stop doing that because it isn’t our main problem. Well GUESS WHAT? I am Gazan, and I’ve been studying the effects of the siege and hindrance of trade on the Gazan economy and TRADE is actually MORE vital that what I mentioned above <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif?m=1300122929g" /> notice how Ken said ‘the factories can be Rebuilt’ not built, so if you are saying he is teaching Gazans anything, you can shut the hell up.</span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">And no his battle isn’t just in the US against Zionists controlling the government. I know there are many GREAT people who are doing all this in the United States, but it is equally important to have activists in Gaza as well working on things <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif?m=1300122929g" /> </span></div><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: olive;">‘Wake up and stop supporting this con artist who exploits the blood of your people.’</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Oh am wide awake, pal ^_^ the ones exploiting the blood of my people are the Zionists and the corrupt leaders that we have.</span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">Now let me get on with my real motive to write this. It will be mainly a response to some of the accusations posted here by </span><span style="color: olive;">Maha Abu-Zaineh, Mary Rizzo, and Nihaya Qawasmi</span> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=218896581471574&id=210627018237&ref=notif&notif_t=share_comment">http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=218896581471574&id=210627018237&ref=notif&notif_t=share_comment</a></span><br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
<span id="more-723"></span></span> <span style="font-size: small;">The first thing I want to draw everyone’s attention to how their arguments <strong>CONTRADICT RADICALLY</strong>! One minute making him out to be a money seeker and a self-centered wannabe seeking fame and wealth, and the other minute making him out to be a Zionist implant!! Make up your minds, people! Let’s see:</span></div><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: olive;">‘Sorry, but we don’t need more than one Lawrence of Arabia in Gaza! We can fight for our homeland, rebuild her and protect her without such wannabes. We have agency, you know! And we don’t ask anyone to pay us to do that for Palestine like Lawrence does!’</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Well, in my personal opinion, a man who has renounced his US citizenship which people go to extremes sometimes to get, a man who AT A VERY YOUNG AGE went to Iraq and FOUNDED <a href="http://kenokeefe.blogspot.com/p/human-shield-action-to-iraq.html" target="_blank">the human shield act </a>to protect the innocents (any money in that? Haha thought so. Danger and only danger) and did not exert any effort to expose the truth and defend the ill-treated whether it was Palestine or any other place deserves better than this. Ken dedicated his life for the cause of justice and chose a risky path where he is regarded as a terrorist by Israel and can be killed any second now. So, if someone says he’s a liar and thief and doing it for the money, what, did he waste all these years of his youth and age, left HAWAII, and waited till his hair is gray to save up money with this trade project to enjoy maybe when he’s 60 or what? Bring up evidence and am all ears. I have worked with Ken and know how genuine this person is. His dedication to the Palestinian cause is beyond any other.</span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Let us not ignore the message and shoot the messenger!</strong></span></span> <span style="font-size: small;"> As far as am concerned, he was able to influence hundreds and direct their attention to the injustice practiced against Palestinians. One interview with Ken,<a href="http://kenokeefe.blogspot.com/2011/04/on-hard-talk.html" target="_blank"> check this powerful one on Hard Talk where he absolutely rapes that Zionist interviewer</a>, shows who and what this man is. If I could I’d pay him myself because his family deserves from us some of the love and care he has shown for us and his entire human family, though he never asks for it.</span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
Also, I do not see any Arab leaders standing up for Palestinians and trying to facilitate trade; Ken IS. Why don’t we criticize them first? If they do, I am willing to tell Ken to stop and that there is no need for his efforts and his family deserves it more. Oh but we DO need him, and this is coming from a well-fed, socially-sound Gazan. The whole world knew of what happened to<a href="http://kenokeefe.blogspot.com/2011/04/samouni-family-project-in-progress.html" target="_blank"> the samouni family </a>during Operation Cast Lead; nonetheless, NO ONE took care of them or funded them in means of education, rebuilding their houses, or even providing psychological treatment for the horrible things they have witnessed. Ken is doing that. Check the Samouni Project.</span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">She argues:</span> <span style="color: olive;">“I would never pay anyone to do anything that a local Palestinian can do and even excel in. The Gazans don’t need anybody to do anything for them. They have been traders for thousands of years and they don’t need anyone to do that for them. They can fight for our homeland and remember that they were the ones who started the first Intifada. They can also make videos of their lives and show their misery to the world. I know many cameramen in Gaza whom I worked with in the past who can do better without using such videos to make heroes out of themselves like he does. “</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">I already answered this in my response to “USA Green Hours” <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif?m=1300122929g" /> he knows we can make videos haha, he liked videos I’ve made you know. Again, bring me evidence he ever implied he is the only one who seems to be able to do all of this, and that he wants to “teach” Gazans trade or anything else!! Your comments make me laugh. Are Vittorio’s videos where he sets up the camera and talks to it about what is going on here or what he is doing also count as being self-centered as well? Or is it only the fact that Ken hold the camera in his hand that bugs you? GET OVER IT haha.</span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">She adds this post: </span><span style="color: olive;">“Asif Khan</span><br />
<span style="color: olive;"> Hi Mary. He’s at it again – have you seen this nonsense from Ken? Initially claiming just to be a “supporter” of this ridiculous “March to Gaza”, he’s done his usual trick of taking it over (the website and facebook are all done by him), and in typical Ken style, he says ““If the marchers are blocked, attacked or arrested, we will do …as the people of Egypt have done,” explained March2Gaza spokesperson Ken O’Keefe. “We will create a Tahrir-style camp as close to Rafah Crossing as possible”. He is <strong>an insult to those who rose up in Egypt</strong>.”</span></span> <br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">So what is your problem exactly? Why is this bothering you? <strong>Jealousy?</strong> I mean, how does this in ANYWAY betray bad intentions? Just because you consider it as such does not make it true. At least he is someone who took up for it and did something, and has MANY supporters who took up for it and were willing to do it- it is just. Oh how I WISH to see more initiatives like that from others as well. He never stopped anyone from doing so had they wanted to? Would he prevent you from doing such a thing if any of you took up for it? Would he doubt your commitment? I guess you’re going to have to try for us to find out <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif?m=1300122929g" /> </span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"> </div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">They repeat the same retarded argument which I just explained twice</span><span style="color: olive;"> “When you support someone who claims to want to teach the Gazans how to trade as if they were born yesterday and don’t know how to take care of themselves is very disrespectful to our people. Perhaps you should go and ask the Shurrab family what have they been doing with their oranges all these long years before KO came to show the Gazans how to trade!”</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">So for the third time, where THE HELL did you get this from?? Give me one video?? One evidence!! Trying to ‘teach’ how trade lol. I think some people do not understand English very well, Ken I am guessing you might need to try some different language for people to comprehend your objectives!</span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: olive;">“Mary Rizzo: If you don’t believe Gazans can and do their things, just check out the new video by the Gazan municipality (Welcome) which points out the vast array of self-actualisation and realisation of great projects, all done because this is normally how people do things, without telling everyone how special they are! The whole hero worship thing is very comical!”</span></span><br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Same Nonsense. Owned!</span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">And now they move from that argument of him seeking fame and money to him<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong> being a Zionist implant!! </strong></span>I am impressed…! Before I quote them and respond, I’d like to mention that I am a literature major. I do not follow New Criticism, I much prefer New-Historicism; and therefore, I’d like to trace Ken’s past. He founded the Human Shield Act in Iraq! What does that have to do with Mossad and Zionists?? What does he gain from such endangerment? That’s purely anti American-Terrorism and government-complicity! You can also watch all of his videos arguing that 9/11 was an inside job and Israel had a hand in it, as well as in the attack on USS Liberty! Someone who argued so passionately for that and brought up so many questions surely can’t be a Zionist?</span></div><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">Let’s see what she says here about the Mavi Marmara attack</span><span style="color: olive;"><span style="color: #cccccc;"> </span>“you should ask yourself how did someone <strong>who claimed to attack zionist commandos</strong> get away with it while Palestinians get imprisoned for defending themselves and our homeland?”</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Weak argument to doubt his commitment to the cause! Tell that to Israel and racist West who consider a white life more valuable than that of a Palestinian or an ‘other’! But wait a second, he <strong>claimed</strong> to “ATTACK” Zionist commandos??? Show me where he said this, I challenge you!! Everybody watched his <a href="http://kenokeefe.blogspot.com/2011/04/on-hard-talk.html" target="_blank">Hard Talk interview on BCC </a>where he SAID VERY CLEARLY that he HELPED DISARM ISRAELI COMMANDOS”; he did answer her that he did not beat up commandos, though he does not have a problem with those who did because those commandos just KILLED 9 of our brothers aboard!</span></div><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: olive;">“He also <strong>claimed</strong> that the zionists called him a “trainer of terrorists” and yet, Mubarak’s collaborationist regime lets him pass through Egypt into Gaza when <strong>ONLY medical teams were allowed into Gaza</strong> and all the other passengers of Mavi Marmara were denied entry into Egypt!”</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Haha dear medical teams were not the only ones who were allowed to enter. Persistent humanitarian convoys got in. Ken did not enter alone, he came with the road to hope convoy which I had the pleasure of meeting. Shahid was a member of that convoy and he’s coming back to Gaza with an art exhibition thingie (Bristol to Palestine),<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZUQa9R1bDY" target="_blank"> watch here</a>. Tell me he’s a Zionist too since he managed to enter? I met that sweet guy, and even wrote<a href="http://palinoia.wordpress.com/2010/12/20/dorky-smile/" target="_blank"> a post here</a> about his paintings in gaza <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif?m=1300122929g" /> </span></div><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: olive;">”Perhaps you can explain to me why did Mubarak’s regime gave him a visa to Egypt if he were a “trainer of terrorists!” If you live in the US, you would know of the activists who exposed the zionists who were detained, deported and labeled as terrorists because the zionists labeled them as such. The US government and Mubarak’s regime receive/received their orders from “tel aviv!”</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Oh really? Prove it! You do not know how the Egyptian border even works! And for your information, you do not need <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>a VISA</strong></span> to enter Gaza lmao! It’s just a simple stamp of entrance. And how did Ken manage to get in? It wasn’t easy and you can watch the videos, but that’s Ken for you <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif?m=1300122929g" /> </span></div><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: olive;">“KO is nothing but a zionist mole that must be exposed!”</span></span><br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">I thought you said he was a money and fame seeking son of a gun? lol</span></div><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: olive;">“People were outraged after what happened to Mavi Marmara and nobody bothered to analyze his story. The zionists wanted us to believe that KO was a hero and should be welcomed with open arms within our movement.”</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">‘Hero and should be welcomed with open arms within our movement’ haha well, you really contradict yourselves here when you say:</span> <span style="color: olive;">“PS. I know the very few that he works with in Gaza. No one from BDS, Free Gaza Movement, local ISM or any of the civic societies in Gaza works with him! Perhaps that should make you wonder why!”</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">First what do you say about his participation in the buffer zone protests with ISM?? <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBQjzpDzcWM&feature=channel_video_title" target="_blank">One video here</a>. What about his hang abouts and demonstration along with his and our dear friend and brother Vittorio?? Tons of videos on that you can find on his <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/1worldcitizen" target="_blank">YouTube channel.</a><br />
And if you say they don’t work with him, maybe he doesn’t work with them?? Look each movement has its own objectives! Ken participated in the ISM peaceful buffer zone protests, but that wasn’t his objective! He does his own thing and he is focused on <strong>trade!</strong> If he was an implant he’d stick to them and those movements, don’t you think? Those who focus on the same thing here in Gaza DO work with him! Maybe you should visit and find out <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif?m=1300122929g" /> </span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"> </div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">I guess <a href="http://thewarjournal.co.uk/">Tallha </a>responds well to this also:</span> <span style="color: #33cccc;">As for organisations not working with him, so what? Most of the work I do is as an independent so that I am not influenced by the politics of other groups. That doesn’t mean I have some mad scheme to conquer the nascent Gazan economy for my own personal gain just because I may or may not encourage aid. Finally, you know the very few that work with him do you? Interesting. I know a few myself, most of them independents. Just how extensive is your contact network? You sound more connected than the CIA. Revise your posts, bring a compelling argument to the table, and make sure it is rational. “That doesn’t mean I have some mad scheme to conquer the nascent Gazan economy for my own personal gain just because I may or may not encourage aid” that was in reference to Ken’s idea of trade rather than aid. Sensible, self-sustaining, and makes people dependant on themselves.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">She responded to Tallha: </span><span style="color: olive;">And of course, the Gazans don’t know how to do that [again she is going to the first point I answered to at the beginning of my post here], right Tallha? Give me a break!!! They are not children or disabled people to allow a crook to live off of their blood. Show some respect for them and their agency!</span></span><br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">Tallha replies:</span> <span style="color: #33cccc;">First off, do not question my respect for my fellows. Second, any idiot can get into Gaza as you do not require a visa, and if you’ve been there, then I rest my case. Third, he entered several times with convoys, protecting and providing aid for Palestinians (including the Samouni family who love him dearly). You have not provided a scrap of evidence, so I suggest you either bring me some proof, or else close your deceitful mouth. Your name is Nihaya [Arabic for end], so I expect a “nihaya” to your bullshit</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #33cccc;">Another thing which is laughable; “they are not children or disable people to allow a crook to live off of their blood”. Really? So all Palestinians are, according to your definition, disabled children then. Over 60 years of Israeli crooks living off of their blood, and then collaboration by dogs like Abbas and Dahlan who stole, embezzeled, and appropriated millions of dollars for themselves that were supposed to be for Palestinians. So now you’re bitching about Ken, yet you don’t even have the decency to realise that the biggest thieves robbing the Palestinian people are traitors amongst Palestinians themselves. Palestinians are suffering, but why are you putting them on a pedestal as if they do no wrong, brook no evil, and can fend for themselves? You have plenty of crooks amongst you and you cannot fend for yourselves which is what people like Ken are trying to change.</span></span><br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">She says:</span> <span style="color: olive;">“I do have evidence that I can post here and anywhere. I have the financial records of his fictitious company too.”</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">Tallha:</span><span style="color: #33cccc;"> Nihaya, if you have questions, fire away, but keep in mind that is is YOU who are making accusations and not me, and apart from telling me you really can prove Ken’s crimes, in reality you’ve proven nothing. Your arguments are self-defeating when you say you have financial records of his fictitious company; if it’s fictitious, how do you know it is, and also why are there accounts for it?</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">Maha posts:</span><span style="color: olive;"> تقديري انه الافندي لهف المصاري مع الكلبة اللي تجوزها</span><br />
<span style="color: #cccccc;">which is Arabic for “my speculation is that he and the dog he married just swallowed up the money” the dog he married??? Does she even know anything about her? She’s calling his Palestinian wife whom she’s never even had any contact with or engaged in a conversation with </span><strong style="color: #cccccc;">a dog</strong><span style="color: #cccccc;">, based on speculations. Very nice.</span></span><br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">She carries on:</span><span style="color: olive;"> “After the Mavi incident, the Israelis labeled him a “terrorist trainer” He was the ONLY individual going on tour and on television saying that they disarmed three commandos. He is the ONLY one going around talking about attacking the Israeli commandos when they tried to board the Mavi. Understand, what Ken said in many minds justified the Israeli response. Imagine, this was a humanitarian mission and there is Ken telling everyone “We fought them off and I would do it again and the nine deaths were worth it all”!</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Haha again talking about him saying he attacked commandos! And her words “ the 9 deaths were worth it” are SO out of context!! I INVITE EVERYONE to watch <a href="http://kenokeefe.blogspot.com/2011/04/on-hard-talk.html" target="_blank">his Hard Talk interview </a>where he talked about this. I bet you anything you’ll end up loving everything this man represents and stands for.</span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">She goes on:</span> <span style="color: olive;">This is Ken’s FIRST tweet.</span><br />
<span style="color: olive;"> I’m Tweeting; being accused of ‘terrorist activity’ by the IDF, it must be done. <a href="http://dover.idf.il/IDF/English/News/today/10/06/0701.htm" target="_blank"><span style="color: olive;">http://dover.idf.il/IDF/English/News/today/10/06/0701.htm</span></a></span></span> <span style="font-size: small;"><br />
<span style="color: olive;"> See? The Israelis really did label him a terrorist.”</span></span> <br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Oh they did label him a terrorist! So according to her this means he’s an implant so that we’d accept him as a hero haha. I guess Vittorio was an implant as well if this is the case! He was the number 1 ISM member wanted in Israel and called terrorist! A very funny argument really! I mean, ISRAEL CALLS EVERYTHING and EVERYONE linked to Palestine in anyway a terrorist! It takes more than that to prove someone is an implant haha.</span></div><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: olive;">“Ken says he renounced his citizenship but the US government wouldn’t let him do this. He wrote a CRAZY letter to them and was denied. But he also refuses to pay income taxes. You cannot renounce your citizenship if you have taxes you have not paid.”</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Oh! I thought he was a Zionist implant! You know Israel would have compromised this with their prostitute the United States to fit their purposes if he was indeed a Zionist implant haha. They would have paid for him at least, yeah?<br />
You guys confused me, is he an implant, or a money/fame seeker? lol</span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">Oh and check this out!!! She goes:</span> <span style="color: olive;">“I have tons more. Pretty much everything he has written but this is why he is dangerous, he wants you to sign up as a TJP volunteer and be willing to DIE and it’s not his responsibility!</span><br />
<span style="color: olive;"> From the “Terms and Conditions of Conduct” for TJP</span></span> <span style="font-size: small;"><br />

How many volunteer organizations do you know write such statements? Drink the Kool-Aid and beware it’s your own responsibility if you DIE!”</span></span> <br />
<br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Haha well OF COURSE it is your responsibility if you die! When you volunteer for risky missions, you should expect it any moment, and that’s Ken’s life for you! If you’re not willing to take the risk, then simply do not sign up!! No one is forcing you! What a stupid argument!!!!!!!!!!</span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
So would the Nakba March from Cairo to Gaza be held responsible if deaths occurred due to Israeli and collaborative terrorism?? You CAN NOT doubt his commitment to the cause OR prove ANYTHING with this argument you know. Next time provide some solid evidence, please <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif?m=1300122929g" /> </span></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"> </div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">It gets even better!!</span> : <span style="color: olive;">“I really wish he’d offer them the kool-aid. Over the last few months, I’ve discovered that some of his most fervent supporters are Islamophobes, anti-semites, misogynists, and white supremists.”</span></span><br />
<div style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: small;">Really? Hahah. Prove it? Examples? Btw, I happen to be one of his biggest supporters <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif?m=1300122929g" /> </span></div><br />

In our newest project we aim to provide the Samouni clan with several beehives and local beekeeping training with a view to export the produce they make from the hives. This will not only help provide work and income for the Samouni project but it will also help pollination of crops in Gaza.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding: 0px;">Beekeeping is a Palestinian tradition nearly seven millennia old - the oldest archaeological remnants shows mud beekeeping in the Canaanite era in the Babb El Wad area, now West Jerusalem. Honey is a highly regarded food source with recognized medical properties, the bee even has it's own 'Sura' in the Koran where the healing properties of honey are talked about.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding: 0px;">We are looking to bring in the materials to make 10 hives for the Samounis on our 'Samouni Project Convoy' leaving the UK on July 2<sup>nd</sup><span class="ecxApple-converted-space"> </span>and we are calling in the help of the Zaqzuq family, who have been keeping bees for many years in Gaza.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding: 0px;">In exchange for training the Samounis in how to keep bees We also are looking to provide the Zaqzuq family with materials to rebuild their hives that were damaged in Israeli attacks. (See Video<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BM1nj8Wc4AA" target="_blank"> </a><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BM1nj8Wc4AA" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BM1nj8Wc4AA</a>). The materials will be purchased in the UK, cut and made to measure for assembly in Gaza at the Samouni project.<br />
<br />
To clarify, the $1500 is for materials for 10 hives for the samounis including multiple 'supers' (honey storage units) 'Nuc' hives (for new swarms), hive tools and bee suits. Any additional materials will go towards making up to 20 hives for the Zaqzuq family'</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding: 0px;"></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding: 0px;"></div><br />

Help do something special!</span></span></h6><div style="color: #cccccc;">Here is the challenge to all graphic artists out there; the Palestine Surf Club is being formed and they need a logo. It’s a surf club, so come up with something that combines quintessential Gaza/Palestine with surfing. This is a fun contest so give it your best, post it on my wall & send it to me in a pm as well. We shall see who gets the best response from this Facebook family, so make your voice heard.</div><div class="photo photo_none" style="color: #cccccc;"><div class="photo_img"><img class="img" onload="var img = this; onloadRegister(function() { adjustImage(img);

</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">We have our first Palestine Surf Club meeting tomorrow and another one in three days, we shall see what the guys and gals in the club think of the logos we have by then, with your feedback the club will decide which logo is for them. So we are on a tight schedule, please submit your logo by 4pm Gaza time Thursday, May 19.</div><div class="photo

</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">This should be real fun, really happy to see all you talented people using your skills for something that will ultimately bring real joy to the children and adults alike this summer and beyond.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">And on that note, if you have any water sports equipment, Kayak’s, surfboards, Wind Surfboards, wetsuits, rash guards, skim boards, SCUBA equipment (although we really would need a compressor as well), a boat, outboard motor, anything water sports, donate it to our convoy departing on July 2, we will take it to Gaza.</div><div class="photo photo_left" style="color: #cccccc;"><div class="photo_img"><img class="img" src="http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/227244_1841355067518_1049800788_31757648_4943075_a.jpg" /></div><div class="caption">Post surf talk</div></div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">If you are a water sports trainer (or teach music while I am at it), and you love children, you may be able to teach in Gaza. This will have to be approved by the parents and government here, but once ok’d you will be in the position to do something that will profoundly affect your life in the most beautiful of ways.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">If you have anything at all that could enhance our mission to provide not just surfing, but water sports activities for children in Gaza, then you let me know, let us make this as beautiful as it possibly can be.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">TJP</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
